The Code of Hammurabi can tell us much about ancient Babylonian society, but cannot show us everything. The law code was written for the audience of Babylonian people in its own day, especially the scribes and officers of the law. So there are many questions we would have from a distance much later in history that people then would have understood without needing explanation. The intention of the law code was to inform people of laws and punishments, not to give later generations a full view of the whole of Babylonian life. The law code was prepared by those in power in the government of Hammurabi -- we don't get any response from the people or indication of how the people then viewed the laws. And ultimately, the law code is written in a detached, impersonal way -- as legal documents generally are written. We don't get a feel for the personal lives or feelings of people living at that time in Babylonia.
The signers of the Declaration risked their lives in a sense that they rebelled against sovereign authority in which British held. They were all brave enough to take a step in creating a new ideal government and nation. As usual they faced punishment or backlash from the people standing on the outside. If there name was seen on that piece of paper they could be victimized and imprisoned.
